"All my inspiration comes from Ahmad Jamal" - high praise indeed from anyone but when it comes from an esteemed voice such as
Miles Davis, you get an idea of how much a talent
Ahmad Jamal is and the kind of influence he’s had on the Jazz world down the years.
Now in his 83rd year, Jamal continues to regularly tour the globe and release albums to critical acclaim. In support of last year’s Grammy nominated
Blue Moon, Jamal on the Grand piano and his trio - double bassist
Reginald Veal, drummer
Herlin Riley and percussionist
Manuel Badrena - entertained a sold out Barbican on February 8th for what turned out to be an unforgettable night.
